Just unbelievable.
And where did he escape to "seconds" before it went under????
I just can't even comprehend it.
There are scores of youtube videos from that tsunami.
Some of them are haunting.
eta: They're all haunting, but the one I can't forget is the ladies running across the field with the water literally at their heels - people screaming at them to hurry to get up to the higher ground - and the massive surge coming on in the background not too far from them.
The video stops but I don't think they made it.
I can't erase those images from my mind.
